    K, last night, I finish up one of my space scenes, save as a .psd. It has over 70 layers.

    This morning, I open it, and all the layers have been merged together. Yes, I opened the .psd.

    Yes, there were no layers below the merged one.

    WHAT HAPPENED??

    When you are on the save screen there is several options at the bottom, one of them is "layers" im geussing when you saved it this box was not ticked.

    If not then I dont know :S

    Well, you maybe accidentally merged all layers and saved it. Happens a lot to people when making a preview (where they merge all layers and hit 'save as').

    yea, all i can do is agree with them, we hit save as by accidentally merging them and then kaboom, layers are gone. Thats why save as you go/progress in a sig...;)
